“The neighborhoods are outlined in grey and at the centroid of each neighborhood is a circle, the size of which represents the proportion of rides that flow out of that neighborhood. The circles are colored according to which statistically-identified subnetwork they belong. Every neighborhood that sends a ride in has a line of the same color as the source neighborhood connecting it to its destination. The weight of each line represents the proportion of rides that go from the source neighborhood to its target. Technically speaking, this is a weighted digraph.”
